If Jaylen Brown isn’t the biggest name on the NBA trade block right now, then Kawhi Leonard probably is. The Los Angeles Clippers have yet to discuss an extension with their 35-year-old superstar entering the final year of his contract, and it’s set off speculation that a trade is imminent.

Leonard remains arguably the best wing scorer in the world when he’s healthy, but his durability has always been an issue. He played 65 games last season, which is his second-highest since 2016-2017. Any team that trades for Leonard needs to be in position to win the championship right away, which makes finding a potential suitor for him even more difficult. While a Toronto Raptors reunion appears to have real momentum behind it right now, the door is still open for another team to make a deal.

It sure feels like Leonard will be dealt before there’s any sort of ruling on his Aspiration salary cap circumvention scandal. Here are six potential Kawhi trades that make sense for both sides.

Clippers get: Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick, Jonathan Mogbo, 2027 first-round pick

Raptors get: Kawhi Leonard

This is the trade everyone is expecting to happen. I wonder if there’s really enough coming back to the Clippers in this trade without the inclusion of Allen Graves or Collin Murray-Boyles. I think another team can beat this offer unless Toronto is willing to throw in a second draft pick.

Clippers get: Devin Vassell, Keldon Johnson, 2027 first-round pick via Atlanta

The Spurs were just in the NBA Finals, so maybe this trade feels a little too bold right now. I don’t think the Clippers would have interest in De’Aaron Fox as he starts a $228 million deal with Keaton Wagler and Darius Garland already in the backcourt, but Vassell would make sense for Los Angeles. The Spurs probably do not want to lose Vassell, and that might make this a non-starter. San Antonio certainly showed their need for more halfcourt shot-creation and shot-making during their Finals loss to the Knicks, and a deal like this could make them the championship favorites next year. It’s risky, but I like it for San Antonio, and I think this offer could win a bidding war.

Clippers get: Aaron Gordon, Cam Johnson, 2033 first-round pick

Nuggets get: Kawhi Leonard

The Denver Nuggets feel further away from a championship than at any other point in the Nikola Jokic era after a humbling first-round playoff loss to the Timberwolves. The 2033 first-round pick is the last real asset Denver has to build a contender around Jokic, and Leonard might be the best player they could add in terms of increasing their championship odds for next season. This is a ton to give up for Denver, but the Jokic, Leonard, Jamal Murray trio would be right there with the league’s best.

Clippers get: Jaylen Brown

Clippers get: Kawhi Leonard

This would be an all-time ‘my problem for your problem’ trade. The Celtics are reportedly motivated to deal Brown after dangling him in their Giannis offer, and this is the rare deal that could return a player potentially even better for next season. Why would the Celtics be willing to get five years older in this deal? Well, it’s possible Brown is just ready for his next chapter, but this trade would also probably make Boston cheaper and more flexible going forward. I like it as a 1-for-1 with no picks involved.

Clippers get: Duncan Robinson, Caris LeVert, Ron Holland, 2027 first-round pick

Pistons get: Kawhi Leonard

I’ll admit I can’t get the salaries to match in this deal on the trade machine, but something like this could work in broad strokes even if it has to involve a third team. A trade for Leonard would immediately vault the Pistons into championship contender status assuming he could survive a playoff run. Detroit seems ready to shake it up after trading Isaiah Stewart earlier this offseason, and Leonard truly feels like a perfect fit for what Detroit needs.

Clippers get: Paul George, Clippers 2028 first-round pick

Zach Lowe brought this one up on his podcast, and it’s so good I had to include it. The Clippers were wise to let Paul George walk to Philly in free agency, and now they can get him back in exchange for the unprotected 2028 first-round pick they once forked over for James Harden. I don’t actually think Philly would go for this, but imagine a world where Leonard and Joel Embiid stay healthy, and they’re flanked by Tyrese Maxey, V.J. Edgecombe, and Labaron Philon in the backcourt. Sheesh. Big risk, big reward.
